THIEVING * Layout: I�d guess the surface area of your thieves is not large enough. The pull from the thief is not great enough to over-come the pull from the connector pins and pads. Consider tripling the size of the thief. As you say, reducing t

Like Russ, I am also curious about the 100% fill requirement. On any thick, high mass board the key is getting as much heat as possible into the board. If you get the board to the proper temperature, solder will flow just about anywhere. As an alte

Thanks for the input Guys Yeah the not so knowledgable customer does not like to residues for cosmetic resons. The flux is for lead free process, of the no clean and water soluable type. We have explained to him that technically the residues do not

| | Recently, there has been an upsurge in the Pin Hole/Blow Hole problem in our wave soldering process. We are baking the PCBs for 2 Hrs. at 125 degree C. The Wave Soldering profile seems to be O.K. Still the problem is persistent. Can somebody h

Has any one experienced hand soldering through hole components to white tin plated PCB's using no-clean wire solder? Our facility is presently evaluating white tin vs Sn/Pb coatings. Our only difficulty at this time has been hand soldering of wires

a) Is there a recommended dip or dwell time for the dip soldering? Check your data sheet for the part. Dwell time is everything in selective soldering. Top side wetting is a good process indicator. b) How do we improve the solder coverage in the

i am using the epibond. i had alpha come in and look at our set up. they told me that the epibond can be reflowed at regular temp profiles with no problems. because i only have one oven and two pick n place machines it was important to be able to run
